Abstract:
This work describes an integrated approach for designing on demand Self-Assembled Monolayers (SAMs) on silicon oxides and particularly glass substrates for cell biology applications. Starting from commercially available compounds, the strategy relies on thiol-ene reaction and provides high quality SAMs exhibiting adhesive and anti-adhesive patterns.
